Cutting the Cord. Fuck You Cable and Satellite

[The Dude]

So, we are finally at the end of our Direct TV contract.  I enjoyed the service (picture quality,  lack of cutting out),  but it's ridiculously over priced and they constantly take channels away. 

Our option for cable in my area is ONE company and they suck all around. 

Thinking of going with Fubo or MyWIFITV.

What are you all running with? 

I have Netflix, Prime, and HBOmax, but she needs her trash TV of fat people shows and whore housewives. I need my sports..

Firestick

use someone elses accounts for Disney+ and Netflix. We have our own Prime. Sometimes we add Hulu for a month or 2, and CBS randomly.

 

If I was going to switch, I'd just go back to cable. I'm sick of all these different things that have nothing on after having the service for a month.

I'm cut off. Netflix,  Amazon Video,  ESPN + and streaming app.  All good. Netflix needs to rotate movies/shows more often though. I can only watch Keith Richards "under the influence " so many times.

What about the Rangers games?

I've been using my Rangers viewing service for 5 or 6 years with little issue. Plus I can watch the games any where.

Meaning, what is "Rangers viewing services"?

All of the cable competitors will have competitive starting offers, and like cable, the price will eventually go up. The only difference being, there's no negotiating with individualized streaming services. You need cable for that.

I've been without cable/satellite for a few years now.  Don't miss it.  The only thing I have an issue watching, of course, is Rangers hockey.  I use MSG Go on my phone and mirror it to the tv.  I wish they would make a fucking fire stick app for MSG Go.

Also pretty kewl to go old school and catch games on the radio.
